What you can expect

Our mini Chicken Bus, a colorful, shiny, and iconic mode of transport. While regular Chicken Buses are built for 60 passengers, ours has only 20 and is used exclusively for participants, offering a more personal and comfortable ride but keeping the authencity of public transportation, the reduced sized allows us to easily move through villages that othewise we couldn't connect in the same route. These buses, known for their unique designs, are a symbol of local pride.
Our Half Day experience provides a safe and comfortable journey from village to village, allowing us to immerse in local lifestyles. Along the way, we visit family-owned workshops and community projects that preserve ancestral traditions like artisanal chocolate, loquat wine and more. Your participation directly supports these efforts and has a positive impact on local families.

The trade route has been the backbone for the development of our civilization and its survival; it is thanks to the merchant spirit that we were able to adopt ideological practices from the new world with fewer casualties than other conquered territories. It is for this reason that most visits are designed to promote the commercial development of the communities, thus ensuring that new generations avoid migrating to large cities in search of better opportunities.
